Earlier this month I made two decisions about the
newsletter that you may have noticed:
- I got rid of the “Quick Hits” section (which was mostly my own content) in favor of a 300-500 word section on some top-of-mind topic.
- I added a monthly digest of all the content I put out during the month, sent on the last weekday of the month.
The two are related. I still want a way to let my
newsletter subscribers know about the content I’ve put out, in case they missed it. But it also serves 2 other purposes:
- It allows me to promote the month’s podcast episodes one more time.
- The sponsors get one more mention in the newsletter each month.
After putting it together manually, I knew there had to be a better way, so I built version one of a
Monthly Digest Engine, designed to aggregate and format all of my links, which I can then add to
ConvertKit.
Here’s how I built it.

What is Streamlined Solopreneur: Helping Solopreneurs Automate to Take Time Off Worry-Free?
When was the last time you took a real vacation...not one where you're still answering emails? If that question bums you out, you're in the right place.
Streamlined Solopreneur is the podcast where solopreneurs learn to build simple business systems and automations that keep your business running — even when you're not at your desk.
I'm Joe Casabona. A few years ago, I was so overwhelmed by my solopreneur business that I had a panic attack. Today, I take 4–6 weeks off every year, worry-free. No team, no 60-hour weeks. Just systems and processes that do the heavy lifting.
On this podcast, you'll learn how to:
- Create playbooks and SOPs to make building systems easy
- Automate repetitive tasks with systems that don't break
- Use AI for grunt work (not creative work) to reclaim hours every week
- Capture every task and idea without relying on your memory
- Take real time off without your business falling apart
New episodes twice a week on solopreneur systems, business automation, and AI-powered productivity.
